    I used some tygon on one and it was cool seeing the oil go around and into the filters and compressor intake etc. On prime/break in mode it moves a LOT of oil......

    Yes it does! It will easily drop the level in the motor mounted tank.

    apologise for the old thread reply, any ideas what diameter tygon you were using?

    I took the old oil hose to napa and they fixed me up. Seems 3/16'' ID was the one. You want it to fit tight. The oil hose from merc lasts a long time, but is expensive. I don't know how long the tygon holds up. But it's cheaper.
